The film deeply explores the relationship between humans and nature and calls on humans not to try to challenge the natural order. Every attempt to control the virus has failed, and the situation continues to worsen.
There are other intelligent apes
In "War for the Planet of the Apes", the bad ape made his debut, adding a comedic element to the film and bringing an interesting background. His appearance breaks the cognition of Caesar and his allies, revealing that ape intelligence may be spread through viruses.
The intelligence of the bad ape means that there may be other intelligent apes besides Caesar's tribe. The spread of simian flu could cause every ape on the planet to become intelligent.
Caesar's thoughts survive to this day

The apes escaped to a new home
